How do earthquakes happen-?
Earthquakes happen when under the ground rocks break at a fault. The rocks then break it release of energy which causes semi waves.
What are the result of heating up the earths core?
this question may actually end humanity because then the lava and stuff that's down there will get hotter and hotter and eventually break through earths crust causing... as far as i know volcano eruptions maybe earthquakes
The force that causes rocks to break as plates rub past each other is called what?
The force that causes rocks to break as plates rub past each other is called shear stress. This stress leads to the formation of faults and the subsequent release of energy in the form of earthquakes.
What word means Breaks in the earths crust?
The word that refers to breaks or fractures in the Earth's crust is "fault." Faults occur when stress in the Earth's crust causes rocks to break and move, leading to seismic activity such as earthquakes. They can vary in size and can be classified into different types based on their movement, including normal, reverse, and strike-slip faults.
What is the vibration when rocks break called?
earthquakes

Some more material on causes of earthquakes?
Earthquakes are caused when huge pressures deep in the Earth cause rocks to shift or break.
What does plate tectonics have to do with volcanoes and earthquakes?
volcanoes: make the ground crumble and break and cause plates to move and smash earthquakes: makes the ground break and smash together and causes plates because they break when they hit each other.
Why do you think earthquakes are likely to occur at the same time when the volcano is about to erupt?
In order for a volcano to erupt, magma must move toward the surface. This causes rock to shift and break underground, generating earthquakes.

How floods change earths surface?
floods destroy everything in its path. it causes rocks to break and become new land forms later.
A zone of weakness or a break in earths crust is known as?
This is known as a fault. A fault is a fracture in the Earth's crust along which movement has occurred. Movement along faults can result in earthquakes.
What is a A break in earths crust?
A fault
The force that causes rocks to break as plates rub past each other is called what?
The force that causes rocks to break as plates rub past each other is called shear stress. This stress leads to the formation of faults and the subsequent release of energy in the form of earthquakes.
What produces the force that cause earthquakes as rocks move and break?
The force that causes earthquakes is primarily generated by the movement of tectonic plates along faults in the Earth's crust. As the plates move, stress builds up and eventually overcomes the friction holding the rocks together, causing them to break and release energy in the form of seismic waves, resulting in an earthquake.
How do earthquakes affect railways?
they bend them and break them
Can metal break during earthquakes?
Yes
